I have an old hp pavilion dv6 and I installed windows 7. Then i tried installing Ubuntu 24.04 and the USB wouldn't boot, it just showed "GRUB" in the top left of the screen. I tried with another USB and the same issue emerged. Is this a BIOS issue?

well, I tried it w/ Balena etcher and it didn't work, but it did on another laptop. I believe the fault is in the old computer.
